About this study

Official title: Patient Registry for Prospective Research on Evolving Radiation Oncology Techniques and Quality

This study will create a patient data registry to collect and analyze information on technology usage and outcomes among patients receiving a broad range of relatively new radiation treatments that have become standards of care in our practice. Review of this information will serve as a basis for development of better patient management plans, to inform decisions about acquisition of new technologies, to provide information about quality in our care delivery, and to create a database that will securely warehouse ongoing information about what treatments the patients we serve need most and the challenges they face in the treatment process. The information gathered is likely to not only improve our services at the University of Maryland and its community sites but to advance medical science and enhance the quality of care for cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to create a robust and long-term patient data registry containing limited demographic, diagnostic, treatment, and follow-up data on patients at the study sites undergoing one or more of the following radiation treatments/technologies:

Brachytherapy, including High-Dose-Rate and Low-Dose-Rate Techniques/ GammaPod Therapy/ GRID Treatment/ Image-Guided Radiation Therapy/ Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy and Intensity-Modulated Arc Therapy/ MammoSite and SAVI Applicator/ Photodynamic Therapy/ Proton Therapy/ SIR Spheres and Radiolabeled Microsphere Therapy/ Stereotactic Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy/ Thermal Therapy (Hyperthermia)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Numbers of patients experiencing toxicities/adverse events both during and at follow-up after radiation therapy with any of 11 therapeutic modalities.

    Records will be assessed to identify per-patient numbers and grades of toxicities and adverse events resulting from radiation treatment for oncologic conditions as graded by treating physicians according to the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) during the period of radiation treatment and at each regularly scheduled clinical follow-up appointment, for each of the 11 therapeutic modalities listed as interventions.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Numbers of patients with different initial diagnoses associated with short- and long-term toxicities with specific radiation treatments.

    Records will be assessed to identify numbers of patients with specific initial diagnoses (from approximately 100 International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems [ICD 9] malignant neoplasm diagnoses) who experience short- and long-term toxicities after any of the 11 therapeutic modalities listed as interventions.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Numbers of men and women who experience short- and long-term toxicities after specific radiation treatments.

    Records will be assessed to identify numbers of men and women who experience CTCAE-defined levels of toxicity during and after radiation treatment with any of the 11 therapeutic modalities listed as interventions.

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Age differences in short- and long-term toxicities associated with specific radiation treatment modalities.

    Records will be assessed to identify numbers of men and women between the ages of 18-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60, 61-70, 71-80, 81-90, and ≥90 years who experience CTCAE-defined levels of toxicity during and after radiation treatment with any of the 11 therapeutic modalities listed as interventions.

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Patient income differences in short- and long-term toxicities associated with specific radiation treatment modalities.

    Records will be assessed for income (by patient home zip code per U.S. Internal Revenue statistics available at http://www.irs.gov/uac/SOI-Tax-Stats-Individual-Income-Tax-Statistics-ZIP-Code-Data-(SOI)) to identify income level differences and per-patient numbers/ types of CTCAE-defined levels of toxicity during and after radiation treatment with any of the 11 therapeutic modalities listed as interventions.

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solid Tumors and Cancer, run by University of Maryland, Baltimore at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Numbers of patients experiencing toxicities/adverse events both during and at follow-up after radiation therapy with any of 11 therapeutic modalities. (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Sep 2019.
